Resp. Management ATI 53, ppt
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Managing respiratory compromise includes? | performing a respiratory assessment along with obtaining a complete set of vital signs |

| Coughing is more effectie than? | artificial suctioning at moving secretions into the upper trachea |

| Chest physiotherapy involves? | the use of chest percussion, vibration and postural drainage to assist the client to mobilize secretions |
| Early morning postural drainage mobilizes secretions that have? | accumulated through the night |
| Suctioning can be accomplished? | orally, nasally or endotracheally |
| Suctioning is not performed on a routine basis but only? | when indicated |
| Surgical asepsis must be maintained when performing any form? | of tracheal suctioning to avoid bacterial contaminiation of the airway |
| Obtain specimens? | early in the morning |
| Wait till when to obtain a specimen to decrease the likelihood of emesis or aspiration? | Wait 1 to 2 hrs |
| Use a sterile container for? | routine cultures and acid fast bacillus |
| Use a container with a preservative to obtain a specimen for? | cytology |
| What should be attached to the suction catheter when getting mucus? | sputum trap |
| Specimens should be delivered to the lab within? | 30 min |
| What are different types of chest physiotherapy? | percussion, vibration, postrual drainage, postitioning |
| What is percussion? | the use of cupped hands to clap rhythmically on the chest to break up secretion |
| What is vibration? | the use of shaking movement applied during exhalation to help remove secretions |
| What is postrual drainage? | the use of various positions to allow secretions to drain by gravity |
| Schedule treatments when? | 1 hr before meal or 2 hr after and at bedtime |
| Fowelers positin drains what part of the lungs? | apical secretion from upper lobes |
| Side lying position drains what part of the lungs? | posterior secretions of the upper lobes |
| What drains the left lobe? what position? | trendelenburg |
| What position should the pt be in for suctioning? | high fowlers |
| What type of suction is used for oropharyngeal suctioning? | yankauer, or tonsil tipped rigid suction |
| What type of catheter is used for nasopharyngeal and nasotracheal suctioning? | flexible |
| Endotracheal suctioning is performed through? | tracheostomy or endotracheal tube |
| Suction pressure should be no higher than? | 120 |
| limit each suction attemp to no longer than? | 10-15 sec |
| How many attempts should be made at suctioning? | 2-3 |
| What should you do before and after each suctioning pass? | hyperoxygenate |
| Who is a single lumen used for? | pt with long or thick necks, no excess sectretions |
| What is a double lumen used for? | Guide for instering outer cannula, okay with pt with excess secretions |
| What is a cuffed tume? | ballon inflated producing seal between the upper and lower airway, pt cannot talk |
| What is a cuffless tube? | no balloon, for pt long term, pt can speak |
| What is a fenestrated tube with cuff? | one large or multiple openings, balloon, also has inner cannula, mechanical ventilation, can speak |
| What is fenstrated tube without cuff? | one larger or multiple openings, no ballow, has inner cannula, can speak |
| How many extra tracheostomy tube should you have? | 2 |
| What should you clean a trach with? | hydrogen peroxide |
| How often should trach tubes be changed? | 6-8 weeks |
| What should cuff pressure be? | between 14-20 |
| Check cuff pressure? | once every 8 hours |

| What are lifestyle factors affecting oxygenation? | smoking |
| What are environmental factors affecting oxygenation? | smog, occupational risk |
| What should you assess about resp. hx? | infections, medications |
| Is fatigue subjective or objective? | Subjective |
